Documenting Russia
Rudnitskaya made her first steps as a filmmaker working as an Assistant Director at the St. Petersburg Documentary Film Studio.
Already her first movies were very well received, both in Russia and internationally.
She was also involved in working for one of the major St. Petersburg TV stations - made a film series on a Russian pop group TATU.
It is characteristic for Rudnitskaya´s documentaries that they are not only showing the sacrificial facts and conditions, but are also very much focused on showing the internal life of presented people.
